Started the week by folding another battery box side, incorrectly unfortunately.  I folded another, correctly then marked out the fourth ready to fold.  I’m still working on the MW, in between, cleaning oil off the brake linings and other components.  Colin came to help on Thursday and removed the battery trays and cover boxes from the nearside, ready for plating over and helped me straighten the incorrectly folded battery box side and refold it correctly.  The holes  left by the NS battery boxes should give me some access to the chassis that side, too, so I can clean it down and silver it.  We also trial fitted the new front wing and got it trimmed and temporarily in the right place, ready for final finishing.  The final job of the week was to start drilling the holes in the metalwork for the first battery box.
